Earlier in March, rating agency S&P Global Ratings released its ninth stability rating for the stablecoins USDC, USDT, DAI, FDUSD, FRAX, USDM, GUSD, USDP and TUSD. USDC, USDP, and GUSD were rated “strong,” while only USDM from Mountain Protocol was rated “adequate”. Stablecoins USDT, DAI, and FDUSD were called “constrained.” The highest risk and lowest valued were FRAX and TUSD. None of the listed assets received the highest score in the current ranking.
